Two Honeygrow restaurants are coming to Delaware this fall.

Honeygrow, founded in Philadelphia in 2012 by Justin Rosenberg, has been rapidly growing the past three years. It will have eight locations by the end of 2015.

Honeygrow is known for stir-fries, salads and smoothies, including its signature "Kale'atta," and treats featuring local and seasonal ingredients.

Customers order from a touch screen. Food is made fresh daily and the eateries have no freezers. They also offer vegan and gluten-free foods.

The new Delaware eateries will be opening at 58 E. Main St., in downtown Newark - between the National 5 & 10 and Switch Skateboarding store - and at 5609 Concord Pike, in the Market Square shopping center in Brandywine Hundred. It's the same center as Trader Joe's.

A Cherry Hill, New Jersey, eatery opened April 6 and a Hoboken, New Jersey, site, the fifth location, is scheduled to open later this summer.

A Honeygrow on the University of Pennsylvania campus is coming later this year.
